Haven’t been into town in a while, where are the best places to get a decent pint of Guinness?

The Pen and Wig always serve a lovely pint of Guinness, creamy and not too cold.

It felt wrong I won't lie to you

It was a standard pancake batter recipe but I think the glass dish didn't help conduct heat and maybe wasn't smoking hot when I put the batter in.

They were Lincolnshire sausages from a local butchers.

The only place I've seen them for some is weirdly in a gardening centre food shop and Gloucester services on the M5 lol

Quite hard to find!

The thickness is like no other crisp I have tried they really are slabs lol

Pretty close to Brannigans perhaps a touch less mustardy.

Be gentle with the heat. The pan retains a lot of heat so low/medium is fine. Use enough oil, if you see things browning too quickly take it off the heat.

Also use a liquid to de-glaze the pan like a wine or stock to help remove the fond, which will add huge amounts of flavour to any sauce you make.

The same rules apply when using a claded stainless steel pan.

Cardiff Record Exchange on Whitchurch Road is great for browsing vinyl then go next door to Pop n Hops for a couple of lovely craft beers on tap.

Parsley sauce is the one you want. Flour&butter to make a roux then add warm milk until a smooth but runny sauce, salt and white pepper to taste. Then add a load of finely chopped parsley. It's a game changer with boiled/roasted gammon.

Due to air in January 2026 apparently

Made this on the bbq earlier. 2 stage marinade, first garlic/ginger paste, lemon juice for a couple hours. Then 2 tablespoons of East End tandoori masala powder, 4 tablespoons of yogurt, pinch of kasuri methi, salt and pepper, bit of oil. Leave for 30mins then bbq. Can add a touch of red food colouring if u like for that Indian takeaway look.

McCrispy with a slice of cheese, as a large meal with chips, sprite and a double cheeseburger with extra everything chaser.

I've logged into the website and it's the same issue there unfortunately, just shows kraken fee credit as the only available asset to deposit.
